Fried Green Tomatoes

I have been looking for a recipe for fried Green Tomatoes for awhile. Well I had to remove a tomato plant at the community garden that had broken free from it's cage and was growing over onto the path. Since it is a wheelchair accessible path, couldn't have that. The only tomatoes on it where green. So I harvested a butt load of green tomatoes. When I got home, I googled a recipe and this looked like a winner... and it was!

2 Heat 2 Tbsp of olive oil in a skillet on medium heat. Dip tomato slices in milk, then flour, then eggs, then bread crumbs. In the skillet, fry half of the coated tomato slices at a time, for 4-6 minutes on each side or until brown. As you cook the rest of the tomatoes, add olive oil as needed. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
